Gemini Explorer is a historic, converted cruising lifeboat that is 72 foot long and once roamed the Western Approaches. Interestingly the boat was involved in the storm of the ill-fated 1979 Fastnet Race, where terrible weather wreaked havoc on over 300 yachts. The boat was built in 1974 in Bideford Shipyard, the Gemini Explorer entered service at the Clovelly Lifeboat Station on the North Devonshire coast and, after saving 44 lives, was finally retired in 1989.
Gemini Explorer has had extensive refurbishment over the years however, parts of the interior have been kept in their original condition to give an exciting insight in to the role she once played as a cruising lifeboat. The five bedrooms are all located below deck and can comfortably accommodate up to eight guests. In the ‘forward’ part of the vessel there is a double bedroom, a twin bedroom and a single bedroom, each with an en-suite. In the ‘aft’ part of the vessel there is a twin and a double bedroom (suitable for one person), both situated close to the family shower room. All bedroom linen and towels are supplied.
